This isn’t a good fix, because it requires people to give enough of a shit (fight against the feeling of decay) to look through the existing answers or write new ones that won’t get many votes because the question is already answered, and I say this as someone who has am answer just like this, python added a feature in the years after the original question was answered and my answer is by far the most ergonomic and simple answer, but I have zero expectations that it will eventually be vindicated… this one question alone serves as my guidepost, SO has been in decline for years, and it’s accelerating, and they have finally noticed and are trying to fix it, but it won’t work…
